Nettoyer SPOrtPIX A winner as a juvenile, Staphanos went on to encouraging fifth in last week’s Ranvet Stakes record a trio of victories as a three-year-old, defeating By Tim Rowe (registered as Rawson Stakes) (Gr 1, 2000m). subsequent Japanese horse of the year and stallion endy Roche is sweating on Roche said Nettoyer, who demonstrated Maurice (Screen Hero) at Kyoto before rounding off a run in the H E Tancred her talent with a ten-length victory at Randwick his campaign with a first Group success in the Tokyo Stakes (Gr 1, 2400m) with in June 2017, said the heavy track last weekend Fuji Stakes (Gr 3, 1600m). her cantankerous stakes- had counted against the five-year-old, while she His four-year-old season saw him take Wwinning mare Nettoyer, a daughter of Sebring expects Saturday’s step up in distance to suit. to the international stage, finishing a gallant (More Than Ready) who also has a penchant for “Her form hasn’t exactly got any better runner-up in Hong Kong’s Queen Elizabeth II beer and cream. or worse - it is just that she has got a little Cup (Gr 1, 2000m), with multiple Australian Nettoyer is second emergency for the bit more luck and a better ride, if that Group 1 winner Criterion (Sebring) back in $1.5 million weight-for-age staying feature at makes sense, without being disrespectful third.

Stud News page 10 | 1 | Brought to you by Cantankerous Nettoyer out to score upset Group 1 win in Tancred << Continued from page 1 “Blake (Shinn) wanted to go to the Ranvet with her last week to see where she stands. Avilius is on career- best form, sprinted and left the rest standing in his wake and he will be the one to beat this weekend as well. “I think she’ll relish the step up in distance - she needs the extra 400 metres.” Purchased by Roche’s partner and co-owner Dr John Crowley for $20,000 at the 2015 Inglis Australian Easter Yearling Sale, Nettoyer scored a valuable win in the Aspiration Quality (Gr 3, 1600m) two starts ago, her first at stakes level, and another strong performance in Group 1 company this weekend could see plans to sell the mare shelved. Roche and Crowley are well- known traders of horses, regularly consigning a draft of juveniles at the two- year-old sales each year, and Nettoyer has been entered for The Chairman’s Sale at Inglis’s Riverside Stables on May 3. She is catalogued as Lot 14. Wendy Roche SPOrtPIX However, Roche said it is likely the mare will be withdrawn from the auction and instead target Group races during the Queensland Winter Carnival. “She more than likely won’t be going there and we will keep racing her,” she said. “She was nominated for the sale just in case she never came up (this preparation) to give us an option and it still gives us an option. “But we could also go into partnership with someone to breed with her. If she wins a Group 1 when she goes to Queensland, or Saturday even, I suppose then the world is her oyster. “You have to take the options that you are given and just assess them and go from there.” After the H E Tancred Stakes, Roche plans to bypass The Championships at Randwick and target the A D Hollindale Stakes (Gr 2, 1800m) at the Gold Coast and the Doomben Cup (Gr 1, 2000m) in May. Roche also revealed that Nettoyer is a difficult horse to manage and can prove tricky to get to the barriers, as was the case at Randwick on March 9 when winning the Aspiration Quality. “The funny thing is she gets better with racing because she doesn’t have lots of trials,” she said. “The fitter she gets, the more cantankerous she is. As much as (Sky Racing expert) Ron Dufficy says she is just like that, and Lizzie Jelfs says she can’t have her on top, that is probably when you should back her.

I can’t walk her across the road to Warwick Farm,” Roche said. “She has to go through the chute and you can’t take her to the hurdles more than once. “You also have to take her for a walk late at night because if she sees people she can put on a scene with people watching her.” And on Nettoyer’s unusual diet, Roche said: “She loves beer. She gets addicted to it. If she had won (the Ranvet), she would have had to go to the bar and celebrate. “That is the type of horse that she is. She also eats cream before the races.” Avilius SPOrtPIX Shinn will again be aboard Nettoyer should the mare gain a start in the H E Tancred Stakes, where she is also set to renew rivalries with her “Avilius demonstrated that he was back at full fitness when he scored Ranvet Stakes conqueror Avilius (Pivotal). his most convincing win yet in the Ranvet Stakes,” said Cummings, who Trainer James Cummings believes Avilius is the deserving also trained the first two home in the Golden Slipper Stakes (Gr 1, 1200m) favourite for the Group 1 contest after his convincing victory last last Saturday. week, one that proved the European import had bounced back from “With an unbeaten Sydney record at stake and with the best weight- his shock defeat in the Australian Cup (Gr 1, 2000m) at Flemington for-age credentials of any runner, he appears to be perfectly placed for on March 9. the quick back-up.” New for Australasian Stallions in 2019 The world’s most comprehensive source of stallion information • Currently has over 21,000 users STUD ANALYSIS | AUCTION RESULTS | TOP PERFORMERS • In 138 different countries RACE RECORDS | 3 CROSS PEDIGREE | RECENT RESULTS • Over 4.25 million screen views BROODMARE SIRE STATS To discuss entering your Stallion in the App contact Alice Lukey-Smith at Bloodstock Media e: [email protected] m: +44 (0)7979 597181 | 4 | Brought to you by Morning Briefing | sponsored by Westbury Stud | 5 | Thursday, March 28, 2019 2, 2000m) on Saturday with a view to him Australia Pohutukawa out to continue contesting the ATC Australian Derby (Gr 1, Sidestep’s 2019 service fee Group 1 run 2400m) at Randwick the following weekend. announced The step up in distance in Saturday’s Vinery “In A Twinkling worked well on the grass on Sidestep (Exceed And Excel) will stand for an Stud Stakes (registered as Storm Queen Tuesday morning at Randwick, with James increased fee of $22,000 (inc GST) at Telemon Stakes) (Gr 1, 2000m) can give the Godolphin McDonald in the saddle,” Richards said.

  • Welcome 2009
    WELCOME 2009 The Australian Racing Board is pleased to publish the Eleventh Edition of The Australian Racing Fact Book, our annual reference guide to the Australian thoroughbred racing industry. The Board’s objective in publishing the Fact Book is to draw together under one cover the key results and statistics for the Australian thoroughbred sector for each season. While a number of books and journals report in detail particular aspects of Australian racing and breeding, we can well and truly say that the Australian Racing Board’s 1999 vision has been achieved, and the Fact Book has established itself as a useful and reliable source of the broadest range of information relating to Australian thoroughbred racing and breeding. The facts and figures contained in the Fact Book, will speak for themselves. To breathe some life into this statistical record it is useful to briefly touch on some of the stand-out achievements that have occurred during the period under review. Bart Cummings increased his Melbourne Cup tally to 12 in 2008 with Viewed winning the great race and looked destined to further increase his holdings to 13 this year after taking all before him in the spring with Viewed winning the Caulfield Cup, and So You Think winning the Cox Plate. Faint Perfume would also go on to win the VRC Oaks, however it was the Mark Kavanagh trained Shocking who spoilt the party by taking out the 2009 Melbourne Cup. Shocking’s victory in the Melbourne Cup magnified the highs and lows of racing, with Mark Kavanagh previously tasting defeat in the Cox Plate after saddling up the well fancied Whobegotyou, then having to scratch the favorite for the VRC Derby, Shamoline Warrior on the morning of the race.
